Downsizing Dubbo

Downsizing Dubbo came about because Dubbo needed help, not just because the drought was affecting so many lives but because their health was suffering too. With 80% of locals reportedly overweight, that made the town one of Australia’s largest per capita. SuperFastDiet approached the Mayor of Dubbo, Cllr Ben Shields, and the challenge began to assist Dubbo in dropping kilos and lifting spirits.
Together with Anytime Fitness, SuperFastDiet gave the entire town and surrounding areas a free 8-week membership to lose weight and feel in control of this important aspect of their lives. ‘The diet is based on the three most popular and effective methods of intermittent fasting, or, as we like to term it, ‘part-time dieting’,’ Gen explains, who has lost 35kgs herself.
All participants were given full access to www.superfastdiet.com including their own progress portal and tracker, with access to all meal plans, sample days, an extensive recipe library and online coaching videos to keep them supported and motivated.
Here’s how the whole exciting Downsizing Dubbo challenge played out:

WEEK ONE

HALFWAY

GRAND FINALE

Downsizing Dubbo Week One

Downsizing Dubbo was launched! The event was held at Macquarie Inn and the townspeople enrol for the free 8 weeks membership with SuperFastDiet and Anytime Fitness. The Today Show were on board to capture the excitement and residents learned all about our 3 methods of intermittent fasting or, as we like to call it, part-time dieting. PLUS they met some amazing case studies like Jacqui who has lost 35kgs on SuperFastDiet.

The Today Show announces the Downsizing Dubbo challenge:

 

 

 

FOUR CASE STUDIES ARE HAND-PICKED TO LEAD THE WAY

Four people were hand-picked as feature case studies on the challenge, each with very personal reasons for wanting to lose weight.

 

Annette Webber

Reason: Annette has a history of illness and her son fears her weight could cost her life

What she’s tried before: ‘Everything else.’ Diet, exercise then botched surgery in Thailand that ended up requiring seven more surgeries to remedy. She put the weight back on.

Motivation: A little black dress is hanging on the pantry door…

Here’s some more inspirational stories from town residents who participated:

I have struggled with my weight my whole life.  I’ve had many health problems throughout my teenage years and ended up having a double transplant in my early 30’s. The medications that I am on make it hard to lose weight,  until now! Superfast Diet was great,  so easy to follow and in the 8week challenge that I did I lost just over 10kgs. thanks Superfast -Michelle D

I set a really hard goal to go from 84kg on September 1st to 72kg in just 6 weeks. Today I’m shocked I lost 9.5kg. SuperFastDiet really does deliver on its promise – Jeremy E

I have tried many weight loss programs and have never had the results that I have got with SuperFastDiet. In my 8 weeks, I have lost 11kg and I’m very pleased with this. – Michelle B

before and after

Overall, I lost 4kg, give or take weighing myself with nothing on but my birthday suit and what day I weigh myself. I’ve lost a few cms everywhere. My clothes do fit better, and I have more wiggle room now. I have a few more kilos to go and I’m confident I can go the distance to get back under 65kg in a few months with all my new knowledge and superfast tips. – Trish
